About
Road Race Tyres

These tyres are for racing style bikes that use clincher/hooked rims, these are the most common fitment and hook onto the rim and require an inner tube. There is a wide choice of tyres within this category and the right choice is important. Lighter tyres will accelerate quickly, but will be more prone to punctures so getting a balance is extremely important. If you require a tyre for all round use look for something with puncture protection, an average TPI(Threads Per Inch) and average weight. If you require a fast tyre and speed is the only thing that matters look for a low weight folding tyre with high TPI. If durability is your priority and speed is not so important look towards the puncture resistant tyres and consider going for a wider tyre, these will be less prone to punctures and offer a bit more comfort. For wet road conditions a triple compound or winter tyre is a good choice, these use a softer compound on the cornering surface to maximise grip.

The grip on the road is very good
I already did 150 km. and road with rain.
It felt very good, soft ride and very good grip to the asphalt.
I will recommend tis clincher tyre to experienced riders.

Smooth fast ride
I haven't got any science to back this up, it's only my subjective opinion. However, I swapped my Conti 4000s for these Veloflex, and I felt that the ride was smoother, faster, more comfortable and cornering was better. For those of you who are brave enough, combining these with latex tubes would probably make a additional advantage.

Veloflex Tyre
I had some Bontrager Race Lite tyres on my bike for 2 years (riding about 300-500km per week) and never had a puncture in that time but the rubber finally gave way and I needed to source new tyres quickly (couldn't get the Race Lites easily). I wanted to try some tyres that could pump up to a higher PSI to see if they give a similar rolling quality to a tubular tyre and I'm pleased to say they do. I've been running around 135 PSI (if my gauge is accurate) and have been doing some long distance rides (100+ km) over rough roads and haven't had an issue yet. They are a little on the slippy side so if you are doing a lot of wet weather riding or descending, I would be careful or run a lower pressure. I was concerned about the difficulty of getting the tyres on and off if you do get a puncture out on the road, but it's no more difficult than some other brand tyres I've used.

Fast and light
I love those Veloflex open tubulars, especially in combination with a Michelin latex inner. The only tyre faster and lighter would be the Veloflex Record, but that is only 20mm wide.
